President’s Message Hello to the Corriedale Family!

We are entering an exciting time for the Corriedale breed as we wrap up lambing season with record lamb prices at the markets. The Ohio Showcase Sale and the National Corriedale Sale in Sedalia, MO, should showcase the very best our breed has to offer; with this incredible lamb market, I expect only “top shelf” stock to be represented. I have also heard rumblings of a faint heartbeat in the wool market after several years of stagnation, giving us reason to be optimistic about our shared passion for show stock.

I am also pleased to welcome our new secretary, Laurie Majchrzak. Laurie and her husband, Steve, have been involved in the sheep world for many years with Oxfords and Cheviots.

Laurie is incredibly passionate about the industry and has some exciting ideas to share with Corriedale breeders in the coming years. If you haven’t met Laurie yet, please look her up at Sedalia or the All-American Junior Sheep Show in her home state of Maryland.

Regarding the All-American Junior Show, this has been the site of our National Corriedale Junior Show for the past four years.

It is a fabulous event showcasing youth from throughout the United States. This event is built entirely around junior activities, including showmanship, wool, market, and breeding shows, as well as an essay contest, advertising and photo contests, and a pee wee lamb camp. Please plan on attending this year’s show from July 2–5 in Timonium, MD. As I often say: the youth are our future, and without investing in them, we have no future.

It has been my pleasure serving as your president during this second term. If you haven’t served yet, please consider that we are in need of new board members willing to help guide our Corriedale family into the future.

A Word from the Executive Secretary As I sit down to write this column, the snow is finally beginning to melt away and it feels like spring may truly be on the horizon. There’s something refreshing about this time of year — longer days, greener pastures ahead, and the promise of a new lamb crop finding its place in flocks across the country.

One of the greatest rewards of this season is watching repeat customers return to select their lambs. There is no better validation of a breeding program than seeing familiar faces pull into the driveway, confident in the genetics you’ve worked hard to build. Equally exciting is welcoming new customers who have found you because of the success others have experienced with your sheep. Word of mouth remains one of the strongest endorsements in our industry, and it speaks volumes about the dedication within the sheep community.

I’ve also noticed encouraging diversity within the wool market. There seems to be a renewed enthusiasm for utilizing every by-product our sheep provide. From hand-spinners to commercial ventures, more people are seeking quality wool and exploring innovative ways to incorporate it into finished products. As dual-purpose breeders, this renewed focus on wool adds strength and sustainability to what makes Corriedales so unique.

The Corriedale community itself continues to grow, and it was especially rewarding to meet new breeders at the North American. Opportunities to connect in person remind us that while we may be spread across many states and regions, we share common goals: preserving, promoting, and improving the Corriedale breed.

I am also very much looking forward to working with Willoughby Sales to bring you an outstanding National Sale in June. Events like our National Sale not only showcase elite genetics but also strengthen the friendships and partnerships that make this association special.

With spring finally arriving, I look forward to seeing many of you at upcoming Corriedale sales and events. Whether ringside, at the sale barn, or visiting pens, these gatherings are what keep our momentum strong.

Please know that my door is always open. If you have a comment, suggestion, or even criticism (none of us are perfect), I genuinely want to hear from you. Open communication is vital to a healthy and progressive association.

As many of you know, I do work full time as a nurse, so if I don’t answer the phone right away, please leave a message or send a text. I am always happy to help in any way I can.

I can be reached at 603-209-2234 or americancorriedaleassn@gmail.com.

Here’s to green grass, healthy lambs, strong wool markets, and a successful spring sale season for all of us.

Watch for our online sale & sheep heading to sales.

Breed Character and General Appearance The Corriedale should at once give the impression of being a stylish sheep that is well balanced, heavy shearing, growthy and hardy. It is a dual purpose sheep; therefore, consideration should be given to both carcass and wool.

I. HEAD

Breed character represents the combination of characteristics that distinguish Corriedales from other breeds. More than any other feature the head gives the breed its character and individuality. The head of the ram should be bold and strong.

It should be in proportion with the rest of his body and should display marked masculinity. The ewe’s head should indicate her femininity, but in no case should it be over refined. The nostrils should be wide and open with a black nose preferred. A solid pink or white nose should be discouraged.

The ears should be of medium size, preferable white, thin, and soft. Black or blue spots on ears are not defects, but black or brown spots on head hair or wool are defects. The Corriedale should have a bright, alert eye. Over-large tear ducts and excessive redness around the eyes are objectionable. The area immediately surrounding the eye and a channel from the eye forward should be completely free of wool. The wool should not grow on the bridge of the nose, below the level of a line drawn from the base of the ear through the eye and continued at the level forward to the nose.

A good covering of wool over the poll is desirable in both sexes.

The sheep must be hornless and should have a well defined pit.

Slight rudimentary horn growth (scurs) found attached to the skin on the ram’s head should be considered a minor defect; however, horn growth attached to the bone is unacceptable.

The mouth should display correct bite, neither over-shot nor under-shot , with the front teeth centered on the upper pad.

Breed Character and General Appearance II. CONFORMATION

A. BODY CONFORMATION AND MUSCLING Front Quarter Neck: The neck should be broad and strong and should fit smoothly into the shoulder with no drop in front of or behind the shoulders. The underside of the neck should be free from folds or wrinkles, although this defect may be forgiven if not present to a major degree. The neck should be long enough to contribute to an overall balanced appearance.

Shoulder: The importance of a reasonably wide and level shoulder cannot be stated too emphatically. Badly set, prominent shoulder blades, causing a depression behind the should, are a major fault and must be condemned. Corriedales should be smooth shouldered. Coarse shoulders and / or open shoulders should be considered a fault.

Chest: The chest should be wide and deep. These points are necessary both for the production of meat and for the constitutional vigor of the animal. It is in a the depth and width of the chest, and particularly in the depth, the that the vital organs of heart and lungs are housed. A shallow, narrow chest indicates small lung capacity, cramped heart room, and in general a weak, delicate constitution.

Underline: The should be level and as parallel to the back or top line of the body as possible. The tendency to slope upwards from the stomach to the chin of the sheep is a bad carcass and constitutional fault. The flank should be deep and full.

Middle Ribs: Deep and well-sprung ribs should arch out and slights upwards from the spine and carry deeply down to the low brisket. The spring or arch of the ribs is essential for constitutional vigor and fattening qualities, and is also necessary to insure the maximum meat in the chop. The greater the arch to the spring of ribs, the more meat there will be in the important portion of the lamb.

Back: The back should be level and straight and reasonably long.

Any tendency to a short dumpy back between should and hip, or between hip and tail head, is a serious conformation fault. A slight gradual lowering of the back line in the center of the back is not important.

Breed Character and General Appearance Loin: The loin should be as long, wide and deep as possible.

Muscling in this region is very important since this is the highest priced area of a lamb carcass. Loin eye area is an important criteria in carcass evaluation.

Hindquarters Thighs: The leg of lamb or mutton should be wide and full as viewed from the rear. Length of rump is also an important aspect of total thigh evaluation. Width behind denotes a wide pelvis aperture and ease of lambing.

Rump: The top line should continue out level and straight to above the dock. Tendency to slope from the hip bones backwards and downward should be avoided.

B. FEET AND LEGS/STRUCTURAL CORRECTNESS Feet: The feet should be hard, oval in shape and neither completely round nor long and narrow. The should be large enough to bear the animal’s weight in soft ground, and yet not so large that they tend to splay open in walking. The feet should be black in color, though streaky feet or lighter colored feet are permissible, if they are not totally white.

Pasterns: The pasterns supply the spring and cushion of an animal’s walk. A tendency toward too straight a pastern means a jarring, stilted walk. On the other hand, too long and sloping a pastern places too great a strain on the tendons and joints and is a weakness.

Legs: The legs should be of moderate length, well apart and should set straight and be accompanied by strong bone. The bone of the legs should be heavy, and flat or oval in shape.

This, light, round bone is a major fault. The legs should be set perpendicularly under the sheep, the front legs directly under the shoulder blades and of similar width to the shoulders. The should stand square in front and behind, and squarely on its feet.

The hind legs should carry the hocks in line with the pin bones.

Testicle Size and Soundness: Testicles should be uniform in size, adequate in size for age, well descended from the body, and have no abnormalities. The scrotal circumference on rams 18 months of age or older should be a minimum of 35 centimeters, and 30 centimeters for a 6-month-old ram lamb.

Breed Character and General Appearance C. BALANCE AND SIZE Balance refers to the blending together of body parts. The parts of the sheep should be in proportion and any tendency toward extremes should be avoided. Corriedales are a dual purpose breed with growthiness being very important. Animals should be longer than they are tall, and adequate muscling and body capacity should be given strong consideration. Mature rams should weigh two hundred and seventy-five pounds (275lbs) and up and mature ewes one hundred and seventy-five pounds (175 lbs.) And up. An updated summary of weights and measurements of animals in recent National Sales can be found as an insert in the publication.

III. Wool

A. QUALITY, CHARACTER, AND UNIFORMITY The Corriedale should carry a heavy, even fleece of bright, lustrous wool, showing good staple length and density, with a well-defined lock, an even tip, a uniform grade (spinning count) throughout and a uniform crimp that corresponds with breed standards. The fleece should be free from hair, kemp, and black or brown fibers. The desired quality is a long staple, bulky 5058 spinning count (of medium grade, approximately 25 to 31 microns) of even density. A somewhat lower spinning count, especially in a ram, should not be discriminated against provided that it is free from any harshness. In rams, the scrotum should be reasonably covered with wool that is not too course in texture.

Uniformity of Grade: The breeder should strive for the greatest uniformity of fleece possible. The wool known as “belly wool” should not extend above an imaginary line running from the fore flank to rear flank. This may be a moderate to severe fault depending on how high belly wool comes up on the side.

Variation in grade from side to britch should be minimal.

Tip: An even tip is desirable. The long pointed tip, except in lambs, is to be avoided.

Crimp: The crimp should be clearly defined and even in character throughout the length of the fiber. It should be of a type and standard in keeping with breed spinning quality. It should be noted, however, that this quality is highly affected by environmental conditions.

Staple: Length of staple of a fleece is the major point in attaining maximum weight of wool. Breeders should strive for the Page 12

The

CorRiedale

Extra

Breed Character and General Appearance maximum length possible in relation to count, without impairing the density of the fleece, or the meat and milk producing qualities of the sheep.

B. DENSITY Corriedale fleeces should show a great deal of density without feeling harsh to the touch. A soft fleece is very desirable. Very open fleeces often contain more vegetable matter and shed less water than dense fleeces. Placing too much emphasis on the density can result in reduced staple length and fleeces that are harsh to the touch, however.

C. COVERING Head Covering: The head should have a good covering of wool of similar type to the general fleece. A tendency for the head wool to vary slightly in count is not of great importance: however, weak and wasty wool around the ears or between the ears is a fault. The wool covering the poll and front portion of the head should not contain an excess of nonwool fibers, preferably none at all. This is one of the first places in the fleece where such faults may occur and indicates at least a possibility of similar faults in the main fleece in later generations. The horn depressions should not show an excess of course hair, or show dark or brown coloring. The excessively bare head leads to an eventual loss of wool weight and to weaknesses in the fleece of the breed, if not in the individual, and to the development of a plain, unattractive type of sheep. The other extreme is the wool blind animal. The Corriedale head covering should be somewhere within these broad limits.

Leg Covering: The legs should be free from black or brown coloring in the wool or hair, and as free as possible from kemp. A leg that is well wooled down to the fetlock is preferred.

The qualities of brightness and luster play an important part in the fleece evaluation and in the value of a fleece. Fleeces should be white or creamy white in color. Environmental conditions can temporarily affect fleece color. However, a canary yellow color exists in some Corriedales that has a genetic link and this should be discriminated against.

Reducing Lamb Death Loss: Management Matters

By Dr. Kelsey Bentley, Small Ruminant Extension Specialist, Kansas State University

Lamb death loss is one of the biggest drains on flock profitability, and the difference between a 5–10 percent loss and a 15 percent loss is usually management, not bad luck. Thinking ahead about nutrition, health, facilities, and close observation during lambing can turn more pregnancies into marketable lambs rather than losses.

When Are Lambs Lost?

Most lamb mortality is clustered in late gestation and the first few weeks of life.

Stillbirths account for about a quarter of losses at or near lambing, while “normal” preterm loss from noninfectious causes is only about 2 – 4 percent. Up to 80 percent of all lamb crop loss (including fullterm stillborns) happens from birth to two weeks of age, when lambs are most vulnerable to stress and disease. The major culprits are abortion diseases, pregnancy toxemia, difficult births, starvation, hypothermia, scours, pneumonia, and predation. Even a simple habit of writing down abortion rate, ewe death loss, stillborns, and newborn mortality each year helps you see patterns and decide where management changes will make the biggest difference.

Pre-Lambing: Setting Lambs Up to Live Prevention starts before lambs ever hit the ground. In late gestation, a ewe in good body condition (BCS 2-3) carrying twins typically needs good quality forage plus supplemental grain up to about 3 percent of body weight to meet her rising energy needs. Getting this plane of nutrition right helps prevent pregnancy toxemia, reduces the risk of stillborn lambs, and supports stronger ewes at lambing. When abortions or preterm stillborns creep above 2–4 percent, that is a red flag to work with your veterinarian. Submitting fetuses and placentas can identify abortion diseases such as Campylobacter, Chlamydia, or Toxoplasma so a targeted control and vaccination plan can be put in place instead of guessing. For producers here in Kansas, the Kansas State Veterinary Diagnostic Lab does a wonderful job working with producers and their veterinarians to diagnose abortive diseases.

Health work before lambing also pays off in live lambs. Prelambing CDT vaccination, good foot care, and targeted parasite control help ewes come into lambing with less stress and better immunity. Culling ewes with chronic udder problems, especially “hard bag,” prevents the frustration of raising lambs from mothers that cannot produce enough milk. In short, every decision you make in the last six weeks of gestation shows up in lamb vigor and survival when lambs hit the ground.

The Critical First 24 Hours The first day of life is the most dangerous time for a lamb, and it is also where good shepherds can have the greatest impact. Colostrum is the cornerstone. A 10pound lamb should receive roughly 20–30 ounces of colostrum in the first 24 hours, divided into several feedings, with as much as possible offered in the first hours after birth. Colostrum provides both dense energy and the antibodies that jumpstart the lamb’s immune system. Lambs that miss this window are much more likely to die from scours, pneumonia, or vigor issues later on.

Temperature goes hand-in-hand with colostrum. A normal lamb temperature is about 102–103 °F; mild chill is 99–101 °F, and severe hypothermia is below 99 °F. Severely chilled lambs should be warmed first (using a warming box, heat source, or intraperitoneal injection of warm dextrose) before any tube feeding is attempted, because tubing a severely cold lamb can trigger shock and death. Many producers use a simple “clip–dip–strip–sip” routine: trim and dip navels in strong iodine or betadine to prevent infection, strip teats to remove wax plugs and confirm milk flow, and make sure each lamb is up and nursing within 30–60 minutes. In barn systems, keeping the lambing area around 35–40 °F with good ventilation and housing ewe–lamb pairs in jugs for at least 48 hours allows close observation and intervention before small problems become dead lambs.

Facilities, Predators, and Weak Lambs How you manage barns and pastures has a big influence on whether vulnerable lambs survive. In the barn, clean drop pens followed by 4×4 or 6×6 lambing jugs give ewes a quiet space to bond with lambs and make it easier for you to spot trouble early. Wet grafting or the use of oxytocin is a useful tool to even up litters: for example, moving a triplet onto a ewe that lost her lamb or has extra milk can turn a highrisk lamb into a thriving one. When it is clear that a ewe does not have enough milk, making a

decision about artificial rearing within the first 24 hours improves the lamb’s chances.

On pasture or range, weather and predators become just as important as colostrum and milk. Timing lambing to avoid the worst storms, providing windbreaks or natural shelter, and keeping pairs on welldrained ground help reduce chilling and disease. At the same time, young lambs on range are highly attractive to coyotes and other predators. Investments in predator control, like tight fencing, guard dogs, donkeys, or llamas, and sometimes professional control assistance, can save a surprising number of lambs over the course of a season. No matter the system, training your eye to recognize a weak lamb is crucial. Lambs that are hunched, hollowbellied, unusually quiet, shivering, or coldmouthed are at high risk of starvation and hypothermia and should be warmed and given colostrum or milk without delay.

As lambs grow, offering creep feed starting around 2–3 weeks of age supports rumen development and improves weaning weights. This not only adds pounds at sale time but also helps lambs handle the stress of weaning with fewer setbacks, getting more value from each lamb you managed to keep alive in those early days.

You Can’t Fix What You Don’t Measure Behind all of these practices is one simple tool: good records. A basic lambing notebook or a spreadsheet can tell you more about your flock than any guess ever will. Recording ewe and lamb IDs, date and time of birth, assistance at delivery, and any problems or treatments gives you a detailed picture of how each season went. Adding notes on mothering ability, lamb vigor, and every lamb loss with a suspected cause helps you evaluate which ewes to keep, which rams are siring hardy lambs, and which management changes are actually paying off.

Over several lambing seasons, these records reveal trends. You may notice, for example, that improving lategestation nutrition coincided with fewer stillbirths, or that adjusting lambing dates reduced exposure to severe weather and predator losses. With that information, you can steadily move toward the goal of 5–10 percent lamb loss instead of 15 percent or higher.

In a tightmargin business, those extra live lambs can be the difference between a breakeven year and a profitable one.

2025 National Corriedale Queen Spotlight Hi everyone!

My name is Anja Lein, and I am your American Corriedale Queen! When they called my name at the banquet last May, I was SO surprised and a little nervous. I couldn’t believe it and I was so happy and thankful all at the same time. I hope everyone had a great year and lambing has gone well for everyone. Can't wait to see all the new lambs this year.

I love Corriedale sheep so much. They are not just animals to me — they are my friends. I love feeding them, washing their legs, playing with them, practicing showmanship, and talking to them in the barn. They teach me to work hard, be patient, and never give up. I decided that I wanted to show Corriedales because I like to show them with fluffy legs and because it's my dad's favorite breed!

I want to say thank you to my mom and dad for helping me every single day, even when it’s early or really late. Thank you to my brother for cheering me on and working with me. And thank you to my sheep for trusting me and being by my side in the show ring.

Being Queen means I get to share how amazing Corriedales are and meet new friends who love sheep just like I do. I promise to do my best, be kind, work hard, and represent this breed with all my heart. This past year I showed at the Show and Sale in Ohio in May with my new futurity lambs, All American Junior Show in Springfield, Illinois, Fayette County Fair, Iowa and Minnesota State Fairs, Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival and of course Louisville! We all had so much fun!

Thank you for believing in me. I am so excited for this year! I wish everyone a great show season and look forward to seeing everyone!

Love, Anja Lein American Corriedale Queen
